The disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing the disk-like cover to the retainer.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a disk-like cover for securing to said retainer; said disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably thereto for selectively securing said disk-like cover to said retainer; said securing means of the disk-like cover includes a substantially U-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the disk-like cover to the retainer, both free ends of said substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means each being provided with a hook-like projection, said projections being approximately opposite each other and extending towards one another.
2. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a disk-like cover for securing to said retainer; said disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said disk-like cover to said retainer; said securing means of the disk-like cover includes a substantially U-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the disk-like cover to the retainer, wherein the clear width between the two ends of the substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means provided thereon is smaller than the width of the retainer.
3. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a disk-like cover for securing to said retainer; said disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said disk-like cover to said retainer; said securing means of the disk-like cover includes a substantially U-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the disk-like cover to the retainer, wherein the two free ends of the substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means are mutually spring-loaded towards one another.
4. The device according to claim 3, wherein the two free ends of the substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means are provided with bevels which facilitate engagement with the retainer, said bevels extending from outside approximately inwardly in the direction toward a web interconnecting the two free ends of the U-shaped configured member.
5. The device according to claim 4, wherein the substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means is designed such that the inner surface thereof and the outer surface of the encompassed retainer are at least partly in mutual abutment.
6. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a disk-like cover for securing to said retainer; said disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said disk-like cover to said retainer; said securing means of the disk-like cover includes a substantially C-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the disk-like cover to the retainer, wherein both free ends of the substantially C-shaped configured member of the securing means are each provided with a hook-like projection, said projections being approximately opposite each other and extending towards one another.
7. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a disk-like cover for securing to said retainer; said disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said disk-like cover to said retainer; said securing means of the disk-like cover includes a substantially C-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the disk-like cover to the retainer, wherein a clear width between the two ends of the substantially C-shaped configured member of the securing means provided thereon is smaller than the width of the retainer.
8. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a disk-like cover for securing to said retainer; said disk-like cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said disk-like cover to said retainer; said securing means of the disk-like cover includes a substantially C-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the disk-like cover to the retainer, wherein the two free ends of the substantially C-shaped configured member of the securing means are mutually spring-loaded towards one another.
9. The device according to claim 8, wherein the two free ends of the substantially C-shaped configured member of the securing means are provided with bevels which facilitate engagement with the retainer, said bevels extending from outside approximately inwardly in the direction toward a web interconnecting the two free ends of the C-shaped configured member.
10. The device according to claim 9, wherein the substantially C-shaped configured member of the securing means is designed such that the inner surface thereof and the outer surface of the encompassed retainer are at least partly in mutual abutment.
11. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a cover for securing to said retainer; said cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said cover to said retainer; said securing means of the cover includes a substantially U-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the cover to the retainer both free ends of said substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means each being provided with a hook-like projection, said projections being approximately opposite each other and extending towards one another.
12. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a cover for securing to said retainer; said cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said cover to said retainer; said securing means of the cover includes a substantially U-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the cover to the retainer, wherein the clear width between the two ends of the substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means provided thereon is smaller than the width of the retainer.
13. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a cover for securing to said retainer; said cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said cover to said retainer; said securing means of the cover includes a substantially U-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the cover to the retainer, wherein the two free ends of the substantially U-shaped configured member of the securing means are mutually spring-loaded towards one another.
14. A device for draping curtain fabric, said device comprising: a retainer for positioning the curtain fabric in a predetermined arrangement; and a cover for securing to said retainer; said cover includes a mounting side and securing means removably secured thereto for selectively securing said cover to said retainer; said securing means of the cover includes a substantially C-shaped configured member having free ends for at least partly encompassing the retainer for securing the cover to the retainer, wherein both free ends of the substantially C-shaped configured member of the securing means are each provided with a hook-like projection, said projections being approximately opposite each other and extending towards one another.
